Best.Raisin.Bread.Ever. ~ Leia<\/p>\n\n

When I was growing up, Grandma, Mom and Aunt Linda\u00a0 all raved about raisin bread. So delicious! But when I tasted the store-bought version, I didn\u2019t understand the fuss. It seemed dry, bland, and a little disappointing.<\/p>\n

Everything changed the day I had homemade raisin bread! Suddenly, I understood what my family had been talking about all along. It\u2019s a great comfort food that will make the entire house smell good as it bakes. If you haven\u2019t had homemade raisin bread, you haven\u2019t had raisin bread!\u00a0<\/p>\n

Raisin Facts<\/h2>\n

\"raisins\"\"raisins\"<\/p>\n

Okay, we all know that raisins are dried grapes and that they\u2019re really tasty.\u00a0 But do you know just how nutritious raisins are?<\/p>\n

The drying process makes raisins both nutrient and calorie dense.\u00a0 Raisins contain a fair amount of sugar in the form of fructose and glucose.\u00a0 An ounce of raisins contains about 85 calories.<\/p>\n

For that 85 calories you\u2019re also getting protein, dietary fiber as well as B vitamins.\u00a0 They\u2019re\u00a0low in sodium and contain no cholesterol.<\/p>\n

Raisins bring a bit of old-fashioned goodness to every recipe they touch. Sweet, simple, and wholesome.<\/p>\n

The Add Beep<\/strong><\/h2>\n

For my Zojirushi Bread Machine<\/a>, the raisins should be added at the \u201cadd\u201d beep.\u00a0 However, this was the recipe that taught me to NOT use the add beep.\u00a0 I\u2019ve discovered that this results in the raisins being around the edges of the loaf.\u00a0<\/p>\n

You can even see how the add beep doesn\u2019t work on the cover of one of the Zojirushi bread machine manuals.<\/p>\n

This photo was originally from the cover of a Zojirushi manual. Check out those raisins at the edge of the loaf!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

So while I\u2019m usually a stickler for following directions, here\u2019s where I happily break the rules. I add the raisins right at the beginning, with the rest of the ingredients.<\/strong> That way, they\u2019re kneaded in evenly.<\/p>\n

Making Raisin Bread in the Bread Machine<\/h2>\n

This makes a two-pound loaf of bread. I used the basic setting with a medium crust.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Follow the instructions that came with your\u00a0bread machine<\/a> in terms of which ingredients to put in the machine first.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

Check on the dough after five or ten minutes of kneading.\u00a0 Just pop the top of the bread machine and see how the dough is doing. It should be a smooth, round ball. If it looks too dry, add water a teaspoon at a time until it comes together. If it looks too wet, sprinkle in flour a tablespoon at a time until the dough reaches that nice, balanced texture.<\/p>\n
